3.13 Launch Delayed until January

That's great news to me don't mind the haters, I'm sure a lot of people are grateful for it.

I would prefer 4 month leagues anyway. Not playing Cyberpunk but there are other games that I can play. Less pressure for those of us that have a life or work or both.

you guys wait for 2077 too?

Yeah, because every single PoE player is just oozing at the mouth for CyberPunk's release! Because it's a direct competitor, and even in the same genre!

4 months leagues is the best decision you made in years. Cyberpunk excuses are not even required, as the decision itself will give you more time to fix bugs and may be release a normal bug-free league for the first time in what, 2 years?

One can only hope

all about moniz

A lot of players play multiple genres, I would say the majority do. I and many people in my POE Guild pre-purchased CyberPunk as well as many people I know. So yes, I think it will have a pretty sizeable impact on POE at their launch. Not to mention it is one of the most hyped games to come out in a pretty good while, that is not part of an existing franchise. People love fresh games and ideas.

As someone who wont touch Cyberpunk I will take this delay but I expect the next league to have not a single bug / fps / crash problems .

.....who am I fooling ? the next league will be the same as the other ones, we (player base) will beta testing the first month of the league because you guys can't release and test it properly (yes, I play every league fully knowing this because I love the game)

Cheers,

+1

while it's the right decision to delay given in what a bad and buggy state the game is, you give the wrong reasons. spare me the psychological trickery of "hey, we could be ready, but actually *you* (the player) are responsible for the delay (because cyberpunk)". are you kidding me?

and what do i do with this garbage league for another month over the holidays? my motivation and interest for poe will be pretty much zero in january. on second thought... that may actually be good because it seems it's time to move on.
